>> he did both of those, went right at the obama record and something the president declined to talk about himself and went deep on his tax policy and his health policy, so he put some entirely new baseline for the election. >> paul: kim, there are a lot of republicans were willing to start writing off mitt romney if he didn't do welcome. i mean, there really were. and they were worried that his fund raising might fall off and there would be a big problem. so, is there new momentum, new optimism on the republican side? >> no worries about the fund raising dropping off now, i tell you that. i mean, you have not seen this much enthusiasm for mitt romney since he's ever run, going back to 2008. but i think because he went out there and talked about ideas, this is what the republicans have been arguing he needed to do all along because you can't say it's a choice you've got to prove it's a choice. that's what he did in denver. the most important thing he did, he explained the choices very clearly. he talked about things like growth versus tax hikes, about free market health care versus o

i think when people talk about last week, expectations for president obama are always exceedingly high and it was relatively easy for mr. romney who had an 11th hour conversion. we recall that he is the etch-a-sketch guy that has transformed himself and quite frankly, we always have to wonder which mitt is going to show up. so if you just lay out lie after lie after lie about your own plan as well as what the president has been talking about, of course, you can look good. vice president biden will do very, very well. he knows what has been going on. he is in touch with the american public, and i'm just hopeful mr. ryan will tell the truth. whether it's about medicare and that it's a voucher program, that mr. romney and mr. ryan, their health care plan will lead to many uninsured and put people back out. if they have preexisting conditions. >> let me just step back just a minute here about your defense of the president's performance. what is your theory? i mean, it was widely panned, and the thing is if he thought as he said the next day that mitt romney isn't telling the truth, that mi

we talked a little bit about the new unemployment figures. i want to show you, and i'm sure i don't have to tell you. i want to show our audience. when it comes to unemployment among african-americans, it stands at about 13.4%, which is obviously a lot higher than 7.8%. that is down from september of the year before, but there's a lot of talk that this will depress african-american turnout come november and obviously that's part of his base that the president wants to reinvigorate. how can he do that? >> well, i think all americans know that president obama has been working very, very hard to put americans back to work. he has had virtually no cooperation from the republicans many congress and certainly in the house. >> he might get the same kind of -- that he already has, though? >> the american public is not going to put up with a close election. the american public is not iffing to put up with this kind of gridlock in wash washington, and, again, the -- republicans have to take responsibility for blocking much of the american jobs act and

so i think he's really going to talk not only about american exceptionalism, but also talk about america being a leader in the world and make the case that obama has not led, not been a strong leader on iran, on the middle east, the arab spring. that's what he'll do. i think the question is whether or not he has the credibility to step into what some might say is, in fact, a foreign policy gap when it comes from this administration. >> i mean, you've got a president here, of course, obviously, the successful raid that killed osama bin laden, winding down the war in afghanistan, ending the war in iraq. is this an area where governor romney feels like he has a leg to stand on? >> i think he's got to try to do anything he can. i think he's definitely going to mention afghanistan. not only the anniversary, but he failed to mention it in the republican convention. he's got to make up for that. he probably won't talk about osama bin laden much because he's the guy who said it's not worth moving heaven and earth, spending billions of dollars trying to track down one guy. he's still got that his
